1 If the big data are used often,and I/O performance is desirable, then I
2 would go for two partitions.
3 One would be either ext3 or ext4, with huge block size, while the second
4 could be one of two with small block size(minimum 1024).

9 Hi,
10
11 Installing gentoo on new laptop and it has 2TB disk. I want to use 1.8TB
12 for data where will be big files and also huge amount of small files, thus
13 I want to ask which FS is best for this. Until now I've used reiserfs on
14 cca 0.5TB partition, but I don't know if it's also good choice for that big
15 partition.
16
17 I've thought about zfs, but I don't need snapshots and such stuff mostly
18 scaling is requirement.
